Hey! Well, Mr. Cheeks is just shy of 20 lbs (may already be there, with the way he's been eating this month!) So I need to get him out of the Snugride. Big brother is still RF in his Roundabout, so we need a second convertible seat.
We have been happy with the Roundabout, so I was just going to get another like it. But I'm wondering if there's anything better available that wasn't around two years ago.
Also, there are some other issues I want to consider: our main carseat vehicle is a Subaru Forester, which is rather smallish. (Our second vehicle is an Infiniti G20, but we rarely put the seats in there). Currently both children are RF, with the infant seat in the center and the Roundabout rear passenger side. That's a squeeze. Two Roundabouts will not fit that way. We need to occasionally seat an adult back there, too. So I will have to either buy something narrower than a Roundabout, or turn Littleman FF.
If I have to turn Littleman FF, he will have to be FF outboard (for montessori's pick-up/drop-off). Do I need to have him in a seat with side impact protection?
Thanks you SO much for the help! I want to pick the safest possible seat for our circumstances.
